Many-Layered Memory Model

The Many-Layered Memory Model describes how our brain stores and manages information at different levels of accessibility. It includes the sensory memory (briefly holds raw data from our senses), short-term memory (temporary workspace for recent thoughts), and long-term memory (permanent storage for skills and experiences). Each layer has its own capacity and duration, with information moving between layers through processes like attention and rehearsal. This model helps explain how we quickly recall recent events and also retain important knowledge over time, coordinating complex tasks and learning.
